I assure you that a high level of efficiency would be applied to any assignment given to me. My address is KM 5 La Trinidad Benguet. i hope that i would be one of the qualified nurses. thanks and more Power.. please leave any comment once you have a news regarding this matter..

“NOT OVER 35 Y.O.”
It is illegal and unjustifiably wrong for DOLE to discriminate based on age. Ibig nyo sabihin pag 40y/o ka na wala kana pagasa makakuha ng trabaho as a nurse?!!! Very rediculous! This is age discrimination!!. That is against the law!!
